Casey, of Scranton, raised $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2018, his campaign said. Barletta, of Hazleton, raised nearly $1.3 million during the same time period, Politico reported on Friday.

But Casey's cash on-hand tally dwarfed Barletta's. The Democrat's campaign said it finished the second quarter with $9.8 million in its accounts. Barletta had just $1.5 million on hand. The campaign released the data exclusively to Politico early on Friday morning.

Casey's second quarter haul, with $300,000 coming in before the May 15 primary, matched its first-quarter totals, the campaign said. The campaign reported spending $2.3 million in the second quarter.

Casey's camp said it netted individual contributions from residents in all 67 counties, with 9 in 10 contributions coming in at $100 or less.

The "outpouring of grassroots support will ensure that Senator Casey has the resources necessary to get his message out, build a strong statewide campaign infrastructure, and make sure Pennsylvania's workers, seniors, and middle class families know the truth about [Barletta's] radical agenda."

The Senate race took on added importance this week as Barletta and Casey traded jabs over President Donald Trump's nomination of federal Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court. Barletta, a Trump backer, supports the White House's pick. Casey opposes Kavanaugh's nomination.

We've reached out to Barletta's campaign for comment. We'll add it if we get it.
